  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FINS_MIG_HIST_BAL002 - ACDOCA is locked by another user; Please upload your excel later ?

    The SAP error message FINS_MIG_HIST_BAL002 indicates that the ACDOCA table (the Universal Journal in SAP S/4HANA) is currently locked by another user. This typically occurs during data migration or when multiple users are trying to access or modify the same data simultaneously.

    Cause:

    1. Concurrent Access: Another user or process is currently accessing the ACDOCA table, which prevents your session from making changes or uploads.
    2. Long-running Transactions: A transaction that is taking longer than expected may have locked the table.
    3. Background Jobs: A background job might be running that is accessing the ACDOCA table, causing it to be locked.

    Solution:

    1. Wait and Retry: The simplest solution is to wait for a few moments and then try your upload again. The lock may be released once the other user or process completes their transaction.
    2. Identify the Lock: Use transaction code SM12 to check for locks on the ACDOCA table. You can see which user or process is holding the lock.
      • If you have the necessary authorizations, you can release the lock, but be cautious as this may disrupt the other user's work.
    3. Check Background Jobs: Use transaction code SM37 to check if there are any background jobs that might be locking the table. If you find any, you may need to wait for them to complete or consult with the job owner.
    4. Coordinate with Users: If you are in a multi-user environment, communicate with your team to ensure that no one else is working on the same data at the same time.
    5. System Administration: If the issue persists, it may require intervention from your SAP Basis team to investigate further and resolve any underlying issues.

    Related Information:

    • ACDOCA Table: This table is part of the Universal Journal in SAP S/4HANA, which consolidates financial and controlling data into a single table.
    • Lock Management: Understanding how SAP handles locks can help in troubleshooting similar issues in the future. Locks are typically managed at the database level to ensure data integrity.
